Working in the garden.

I have a local lady who comes and cuts my grass, I wouldn't go so far as to call it a lawn. Some parts of the grass are a lot higher than others so it's not something I could manage.

I've also, with the help of a neighbour dug a small flower bed in one corner of my garden. I purchased a lavender plant and a dogwood called Midwinter fire.

The same neighbour has just given me a small tray of snapdragons and some other plants.

I'm about to put my shoes on and go and plant them in my flower bed.

Snapdragons here are self-seeding. I hope yours flourish in the coming years.

Wonderful that you are able to do a little gardening and that your neighbor is supportive. Dogwood is one of my favorites. Enjoy!
